    And the cycle of deeply ironic hypocrisy continues! At least, for now, the gas lighting has been left at the wayside.

    Nyquil Chicken can do that. It's likely not as bad as subpar Trump RW gas lighting (that stuff eats the mind) however.

    Bad people still have their freedom of speech. Unless you are advocating imminent lawless action in your speech you are free to say whatever you want.

    Yeah I agree I found what was actually on the flyer and it's essentially that conspiracy theory that Jewish people control the government or something. I'd say it's more kooky than anything. Builderburgs or illuminati are better plot devices.

    Incredibly dumb people

    I am of the view that you best combat this sort of thing by engaging with them. It does no good to push them underground where falsehoods and vindictiveness fester - get them on the biggest stage you can and humiliate them with facts in front of the world.

    After all, their arguments and beliefs have no merit and are comically easy to discredit.

    The most successful deradicalization effort was by a black man who made friends with the KKK. Not by validating their views by yelling at them, but by demonstrating unequivocally that their beliefs are false though understanding and becoming living proof himself. When the truth is right in front of your eyes it's a lot harder to deny.

    Most ignorance is facilitated by a lack of contact with the out-group.

    I talked right to the people. I politely asked them to clarify what I had just overheard. I realize that's anecdotal but I didn't hear ANY who disagreed with the pamphlets. Most were quite beyond them, particularly in regard to Jews

    Anecdotal is OK, at least it's direct experience. I have no doubt there are some crazies in the bunch.

    You mean the flyers? Yes, they are probably protected by free speech amendment, as are KKK rallies and other nonsense, but such rapid increase in hate is a troubling sign of where things might escalate. Anti-semitism never made any sense to me, since Jews have done literally nothing to other groups of people. They are actually among the most productive group of people in US.

    Democrat propaganda. The democrat biased ADL makes up whatever numbers it wants to push the BS talking points. People that spread the ADL and democrat lies are also liars.

    Can yo prove that claim, or are just hoping people believe it? ADL is a Jewish organization (founded in 1913) and they keep track of anti-semitic incidents, while people like you always call them liars or 'democrats'. Go figure.

    Also in headlines: "Florida judge who approved FBI search of Mar-a-Lago faces barrage of antisemitic online attacks" (he is Jewish)

    Or is this you sweeping the issue under the rug?

    Yep, must be the Nyquil Chicken. Why choose between RW propaganda and Nyquil Chicken when you can simply have both!

    It's not ok, not really, but it does explain my feelings, just not logically. The important thing I think should be taken seriously is that there are some SCARY people at Trump rallies.

    Can you think of any other kind of political gathering (and all Trumper claim that's all 1/6 was) where you might see something akin to this;

    I don't think I've seen any Che shirts at any Biden rally, has anyone?

    OK, this lets us know where you're coming from, and you should be going right on to most people's Ignore list.

    OK, how many Hammer/Sickles do you see at your local Democrat's Club? At mine, we've kicked out perfectly innocent all black-clad teens who everybody KNOWS were just trying to be fashionable

    It's called a cult of personality, and yes I can think of other examples...Obama worship for instance. His determination to "fundamentally transform" the country is far more dangerous than anything Trump represents.

    So, an obscure line from his campaign speeches (which resulted in nothing) is more dangerous than physical attacks?

    You expect them to openly tell you who they are? Check out what they do when they have the power to do it and listen to what they want. Which Communist government doesn't claim to be the Peoples Democracy? Do you remember the Cuban revolution and the burning question Was Fidel Communist or not? He kept it unanswered till he was successful and then gleefully declared. Check out that Democracy for The People. Communism, whatever they call themselves, is an iceberg. Show you a bit but you can't see the part that rips the bottom out of your ship till it's too late.

    you just proved democrats are antisemitic, but that’s been true since the democrats started the KKK.
